Yah..I figured. Must have been a fun road. Any fires scheduled for corner canyon this weekend?:rofl:

Does anyone know if the road that goes out of Corner Canyon to Highland/Alpine is open? I am assuming not, considering all the rich people up there who have surely yelled loudly to close it by now.

Welll...all you have to do is start a range fire in the area you want to go to, then follow the fire trucks and airplanes after the gates open up. I recommend not calling 911 if you do happen to find yourself stuck, however. I hear that gets expensive, and complicated.

I always save mine as JPEG files, since it makes the file smaller, but you do lose some of the graphic and color template by doing so. What did you save yours as?

That's a good question. I am posting from work, where we have a T3 connection, and high-res monitors. I have 1GB of RAM, which is pretty standard. Maybe just your settings? I haven't tweaked anything in mine...this is just default. Does anyone know how far south you can drive up the ridge...

......So I was looking around on Google Earth..... (Famous last words) And it looks like a guy could get to where I was from Bountiful, or NSL without too much trouble (on foot or bike, of course). So I think I might just try this. Anyone familiar with the area?

That's good to know...thank you VERY much Brian, for following me home and for the terrific job getting me turned.

Geez...Way too many people, and too much going on. Ok..I should know everyone's names, and really tried to chat with everyone...but that ole FS LEO was pretty persistent. It was the gentleman in the yellow Rubicon with the killer lift who followed me. He said he was in WVC, so he just...

Wow. I thought I was grateful to all you guys before, just for giving me hope that I would be able to put this behind me at some point, but I really am at a loss for words as to how much this means to me. I hope that every time you pull someone out of trouble, whether their own bad judgment or...

Need a ride!! I need yet another favor....as it turns out, my ride to the meeting place fell through...soooo..is there anyone who could pick me up somewhere in the South Valley? I can be anywhere between 90th south and I-15 and 123d south and I-15, anytime after 8 am. I can get myself that...

I am clueless as to what it really takes to do something like this...hoping to learn lots on Monday, however. Since Marc came highly recommended as someone who knows about vehicle recovery, I will defer to him as to what we need to have up there. Marc?

Thanks, Medsker - I look forward to meeting you, Mark, and whomever else can make it. Have a great weekend!

Assuming you are referring to registration and donation, I did that this morning. I have been wanting to get involved for some time. Had I done this earlier, I might have had enough sense to avoid this predicament altogether.
